business angel survey II

Filed in archive Venture Capital on January 7, 2004

Another recent survey indicates a rising mood in investing behavior of business angels.

• on a scale between 1-7, angels rated their the investment climate with 4


• the approx. deal size was �35k, 80% in follow-ups


• every angel invites 2 entrepreneurs for detailed talks per quarter


• a common reason for the failure of many talks, according to the study, are unrealistic ideas about valuationby entrepreneurs


• unsurprisingly most companies seeking to raise money from business angels are in either in first stage or seed phase
